YOU ARE A COMPOUND DUNCE.

YOU HAVE NO BRAIN.

Look at this little KID ....
Its a war I guess, between your tribal understanding and mine, and I am certain you would not claim anyone started it but you and I.

If you were fighting amongst yourselves, its stupid to claim those who took advantage of your division made you start fighting.

YOU ARE TALKING ILLITERATE RUBBISH.
I feel certain that you can say what you have to say without needing to resort to rudeness and insults.

Before the arrival of Europeans, we Yorubas were already fighting wars amongst ourselves, and here's you starting war by insulting me, which has nothing to do with whoever colonised you.

Before the arrival of Europeans, we had already had the arrival of Muslims, who fought wars to conquer many African empires, which then resulted in wars between African Muslims and traditional Africans. But I guess you need to blame European colonialist for our own inadequacies for some reason.

Both perspectives are interesting. It is an important sociocultural discourse as it affects the basic unit of the society, which is the family. A stable home is fundamental to proper functioning of the society at large. But when we have women going haywire because of change of location 🤔 🙄 😒
You had men going haywire in Africa where the woman did not have a choice.

Pig went out to condomless fuq his sidechick and came home to share the disease he got with his wife he beat up first for not cooking dinner! And when she reported him to police for raping her, her own father told her to grin and bear it after the Nigerian Police had laughed in her face that a husband can not rape his wife!

Just so you know, there are more relationships of Africans that survive after they have migrated, but you'd usually find the man in the relationship is not a pig.

Your question can be rephrased as, why do women not put up with the crap from men once they move from Africa to UK?

But I doubt that perspective interests you.

Mr Man, there have been books and scholarly research published about how the COLONIALISTS created TRIBES AND TRIBALISM in Africa, not just in Nigeria.

It’s called Divide and Rule.
You can't be divided and ruled if you had unity in the first place. And we had tribes long before colonialists arrived to take advantage of our tribal divide.

You are wrong.

THERE IS NO SOCIETY ON EARTH THAT WAS DEVOID OF CONFLICT OR WAR.

Should I start listing all the wars that occurred among ENGLISH speakers of Europe throughout history?

Do you know that the English fought bloody civil wars among themselves?

America itself fought a very bloody civil war when majority of its population were Irish.

So we are not talking of wars.

We are talking of TRIBALISM.
Tribalism is just one reason for war. And as you point out, tribal wars were fought amongst the British, and Europe as well. In Britain's case, the outcome of such wars whittled the hundreds of kings that ruled the Isle down to the one we have today. And even in my lifetime, it was not unusual to see house for rent adverts stating "no dogs, no blacks and no Irish".

You may not be talking of war, but tribalism is historically one reason for war, as seen by that between the ancient tribes of Wessex and Essex, and what happened in Rwanda.

That's how bad tribalism can be.

The Kingdom of Wessex and the Kingdom of Sussex were involved in several conflicts, including:

Battle of Ellendun
The West Saxons conquered Sussex, Kent, and Essex in the aftermath of the Battle of Ellendun around 827. This roughly doubled the size of the Wessex kingdom.
Invasion attempts

The Kingdom of Wessex attempted to invade Sussex on multiple occasions, including in the 7th and 8th centuries.

Cædwalla's invasion
Cædwalla of Wessex killed the king of Sussex and devastated the region. The South Saxons were able to force Cædwalla out of Sussex, but he returned and killed the king again.

The Kingdom of Sussex eventually became the county of Sussex, England.

Its a pity you have to absolve us of our tribal stupidity and blame others for our idiocy and ignorance, when the truth is we are the stupid ones being tribal by ourselves.

In fact, before the British, we were being villagebal, a word I'm using to describe the hatred for our neighbouring villages, as shown by the ancient and continued wars between Yoruba speaking Modakeke and Yoruba speaking Ife, which had nothing to do with the British, and that between my own Orolu Kingdom and Ilobu, ditto, no British.

There are indeed puppet masters, as I repeatedly inform those advocating for Oduduwa Republic, telling them the likes of Tinubu would lead it and there wouldn't be Igbos or Hausas to check their excess, but blaming the wrong people for pulling our strings just shows how very irresponsible we are, and are not yet ready to heal ourselves of our stupidity and ignorance yet.

Hopefully, we would not degenerate to rwandaism before we need to learn to love our neighbours and ourselves or what might be left of us.

Better still. It means you wouldn't believe the book, but might seek to understand it instead. Because being Nigerian, it would program you one way or the other due to its influence being in the air you breath and likely breast fed to you.

Do not let your self be convinced you descended from some ignorant made from mud enslaved Adam please, to work in some poxy garden, when you can choose to be an image of God and rule and subdue and multiply.

Be honest with yourself. It's where you don't want to go. Fortunately, once your eyes are open and you see you can't close them and unsee.

If you are a Christian, be glad there is Christ. He would not want you to not use your own senses to worship God after he has opened them, for only then can you do greater things than he did.

You al least admit you don't know, and that is the start of getting to know.

Read Genesis 1-3 to determine if you'd want to be a Genesis 1 human or a Genesis 2 human. It might influence what you become in life.

Also study how alimanjeris are created by depriving people of knowledge.

In a nutshell
It took Britain almost 1500 hundred years after conversion to Christianity for them to pluck the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil to test if knowledge kills or if it frees from slavery to ignorance.

We, thankfully, live in what I'd call faster times so it might take us 150 years, or a mere 15 even, when we too will begin to develop ourselves with the sweat of our brow like they did to rule and subdue and multiply.

Yeah and It is worth noting that the Constitution adds that if the House and Senate cannot agree on how long to adjourn, then the president has the authority to adjourn the entire Congress and also to set the date that members will reconvene, specifically providing that “he may adjourn them to such Time as he shall think proper.”

He knew that what?
If I already understand the reasons behind my father's actions when he disciplined me before, is it necessary to question why he is doing it again?
It seems impossible for this to be understood, just as it's impossible for many to understand that Adam and Eve who were made from mud were naked ignorant slaves to those made in the Image of God.

Thankfully, Eve was not as stupid as Adam. She plucked the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil to test for herself if she would die, only to find it good for gaining wisdom, which enabled them to be freed from slavery and become self employed as the garden of eden god kicked them out because they dared used the brain in their own head!

They went on to populate the earth and live almost a thousand years, the story goes.
